Small Brands, Big Gifts: A Holiday Guide for Him

Small Brands, Big Gifts: A Holiday Guide for Him

Crafted gifts from four women founders ๐Ÿ’š

Let's be honest: shopping for the guys in your life can be tough. "I don't need anything" is not a wishlist. And another pair of socks isn't going to cut it this year.ย 

So we put together a small gift guide for the dads, brothers, partners and best friends who are hard to shop for. We joined forces with a few of our favorite, fellow women founders (Jeffi, Trades of Brit, and Ruth Nathan's) to put together a guide full of gifts with real craft, real personality, and real people behind them. Every brand here is doing things with intention.

1. For the Guy on the Go

TORRAIN

Retro Duffel -ย The classic round duffel, reimagined with upcycled materials and handmade by our artisan partners in Cambodia. Perfect for quick overnights and gym days, and it makes a statement in any overhead bin.

Plunge Cooler Bag -ย Ditch the styrofoam, keep the chill. Made for picnics, lunches, day trips, tailgates and the cooler run to the neighbor's.

Shop the Retro Duffel - $74

Shop the Cooler Bag - $42

2. For the Guy Who'd Rather Be Outside

Jeffi โ€“ One of Everything Bundle

Lake days, tee times, campouts, yard work. If mosquitoes always find him first, this trio has his back:

  • Mosquito Bee Gone Balm
  • Mosquito Bee Gone Roll-On
  • Mini Ointment

Jeffi's repellents are made with plant oils and butters instead of harsh chemicals, so his skin stays soft while the bugs stay away. They're small enough to ride along in a Sling Pack pocket all season.

3. For the Beard Guy

Trades of Brit โ€“ Grooming Gift Bundle

If his beard care routine is a bar of hand soap and hope, this one's for him. Trades of Brit makes plant-based grooming goods that soften facial hair and keep the skin under it from drying out, and the bundle puts her best beard essentials in one box.

He'll use it every morning, and it'll last him well past New Year's.

4. For the Best-Dressed Guy in the Room

Ruth Nathan's โ€“ Reversible Bow Tie Gift Set

He's the one people ask, "Where'd you get that?" Give him a fresh answer. This set comes with a reversible butterfly bow tie in a bright Caribbean-inspired stripe, plus a coordinating lapel pin and pocket square. One side of the tie is solid light blue, so it works for both loud and low-key occasions.

Each piece is sewn by hand in Atlanta. Wedding season, office party, New Year's Eve: covered.

Shop the Gift Set - $210

Each of these brands started with one woman, one idea, and a lot of late nights (like this one ;)).

Thank you for shopping small and for choosingย something with a story behind it.

Happy gifting!
